  1. When doing the year end processes, an accountant should be able to unlock the period for their log in only ie 'unlock for me only' as if the client or others have the same user access, they can change the accounts while we are working.

    Appreciate your sharing on lock date controls. Being able to remove lock dates for specific users can help maintain accounting information .

    We’ve moved this idea to Gaining support, so the community can vote and comment. If you have any details about how you’d use it, adding them here will help everyone understand the idea better and give the product team more context down the line.

    We’ll update more here once we gain more traction.

  2. The 3 letters that are by the company name are automatically chosen by Xero, we should be allowed to change this to something relevant, for example, my company is called ACR Fabrications Ltd, common sense would dictate those 3 letters should be ACR yet xero has chosen AFL which is obviously the first letter of each part but that's not relevant to my company

  3. Find and Recode should not be able to change tax type without fair warnings in Sales Invoices.

    This is a risky feature to be used without warning. I have noticed that it doesn't change the sales invoice, which it shouldn't. But surprise was it could change any invoices selected no matter if those were already issued/ paid/ closed etc.

    Appreciate the added detail, Ankit. Understand how an extra warning and drawing attention to the impact a change could make may help some users.

    I've slightly edited the title of your idea and we'll get a sense from the wider community here that'd find this helpful (feel free to share with your own client too!)

    It's not something we have planned at present, but will update you here if any are made. 🙂

  4. Please include the date that support pages are updated and the version of Xero to which they are applicable.
    Some of the support pages are out of date and do not relate to the current version of Xero.

  5. Where you have a group of companies, it would be great if you could have a HomePage which consilidated the position across all Group companies. Forinstance if you had 3 subsidiaries under 1 topco, it would be great to see the cash balances, creditors and debtors of all 4 companies in one place.

  6. XERO is the only system I know which does not automatically add the hyphen between the numbers. e.g. 00-00-00 Instead XERO goes 000000 and you have to add 2 hyphens. This would just be nice!

  7. Currently Product Idea notifications are either enabled or disabled.

    Which means I get a ridiculous amount of emails for every single product idea I've ever commented or voted on. And given Xero's inability to actually resolve any of these issues, the number of notifications is going up and up.

    Currently, because of the amount of complaints about the new homepage my inbox is full every morning.

    I don't want any more notifications reminding me how bad the new home page is. However, I do want notifications on a lot of the other 'Product Ideas' that I am following.

  8. The Organisation settings page should have collapsible headings, similar to the Reports page, for clear, concise, and faster access to settings.

    Currently, the new look of the organisation settings page is a large step backwards. It is difficult to quickly find and select a setting area that is not part of the shortcut menu options in the new look homepage/menu rollout.

    The current organisation settings page is an exercise in excessive scrolling abilities to find the setting you need to access quickly.

    The old (clunky-looking) Basic Settings listing and the Advanced Settings listings were a faster and better layout to…
